December 2024

September 2024.

Life was hectic for a while we cleared out 40+ years of accumulated panel-beating stuff.   My husband has a spasmodic muscular disorder, similar to MD, so realised it was time to retire. 

Sorting stuff, deciding what to keep, what to discard.  Taking photos and listing things on TradeMe kept us busy for a good month.

The poor plants were rather forgotten about, and to add to their lack of TLC, I had to trip over and injure a few things, making it even harder to tend to them.

Life moves on …

I had 8 people attend the Let’s Create – Beginners Pottery Workshop run by Otorohanga Creative Conduit.   As I write this, they have had 2/3 weeks of the workshops, they just need to add some colour to their pieces and get them fired now.

It was a great exercise for me, thinking about all that I would need to supply for a workshop and how much to explain to the participants.   Perhaps next time the sessions need to be longer.  

I realised while doing this Pottery Workshop, that It’s hard to restrict myself to a few techniques per session, as there are so many things I could show people.

Already I am considering what I can suggest as another workshop.   I enjoy sharing what skills I have accumulated. 

What sort of workshop do you think I should offer next time?

Ps, I can't see to add any photos, so sorry about that.  Will check with my website people to see what is happening.

Well, I started this in September, and now it is December.  Woops, naughty me.

I won’t go on, but I will let you know that I have made a 15% store wide discount.   

And am running a sale on my Kat’s Flora Facebook page, so head over there and see if anything interests you.   Naturally, you can order from the page and include it in the website postage.
